About

In this session on US Foreign Intervention, participants will use this discussion guide to steer conversation.

We will explore questions like: What is the overall impact of US foreign interventions? Do they make the world safer or do they do more harm than good? Should the US increase or decrease its role abroad? Do you think powerful countries have a moral obligation to aid less powerful countries when they are unjustly attacked? What about intervening when a country is violating the human rights of its own citizens?

Welcome to Dialogues! Here’s some helpful information to help you prepare for your session:

📌 Session introduction: At the start of the session, the event host will provide some introductory remarks about how the session will work and tips for discussion.

🧩 Discussion partner matching: All participants will be matched with a conversation partner to discuss with. If there are uneven numbers, you may have two conversation partners.

🤝 Breakout discussions: After the session introduction, everyone will switch to their breakout discussion. Your discussion will be unmoderated, so you can start when your partner arrives in the new Zoom link.

🗺️ Discussion Guide: You will have a topic-specific discussion guide for the session to help guide conversation.

Session length: The breakout discussions are scheduled for 45 minutes but you can discuss as long as you want!

Stay on topic: Please make sure to stay on topic. If you and your partner run out of things to discuss, it’s okay to end the discussion early. You will not be returning to the main group when your conversation is over.

🤔 Make the discussion your own: You probably won’t have time to answer all the guide questions so pick and choose! Feel free to also bring in your own questions and ideas outside of the guide.

📝 Survey: A mandatory survey will appear at the end of your session to fill out. This must be filled out for you to get credit for the session in your Dialogues portfolio.

🤸‍♂️ Have fun: There is no preparation needed for this event. These conversations are meant to be casual, in addition to being meaningful. We hope you enjoy it!
